Greetings,


A new shave set up to start the weekend. Another chinese clone razor week...Starting off with the Kanzy K100/Baili BD176..Carrying on with the cold water shaves which have been a wonderful tonic for my mature skin.

The Treet 7DP is another very sharp efficient but smooth blade which pairs together wonderfully with my non-aggressive razors.

I find every Treet 7DP & the Platinum blade i've tried perform better and smooth out after the first shave.

A enjoyable 3 pass +pick ups DFS/near BBS shave with no errors to report.

Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of Wilko ~ Men's Moisturiser.

My face is feeling super smooth and smelling divine.;)

Stay safe ,and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.:cool:

A brilliant shave. The BIC and Blackbird are made for each other. 2.5 passes and a BBS finish.

I'm saving the final Extro soap for tomorrow's shave as I really wanted to try a PAA soap. What a soap! Great lather and I love the smell of Harvest Moon. This one is going to be a favourite.
